Human enhancement through biotechnology raises ethical questions about permissibility, net benefits, and playing God with human nature.

The Ethics of Human Enhancement

The European Commission has developed ethics guidelines for human enhancement research, aiming to provide international oversight and address ethical concerns in this field.

Ethics guidelines for human enhancement R&D

This book offers a comprehensive and philosophically informed analysis of the ethical issues surrounding biomedical enhancement, destined to become an essential reference for future debates on the use of technology to improve human capacities.

Beyond Humanity? The Ethics of Biomedical Enhancement

Human enhancement technologies face ethical and social challenges, requiring research on humanitarian considerations for informed decisions.

Global Issues and Ethical Considerations in Human Enhancement Technologies

This Special Volume explores the ethical, philosophical, and social issues raised by emerging biotechnologies, focusing on cognition, mood, and life-extension, and considers general questions about human enhancement.

The Ethics of Enhancement

Precautionary concerns can justify scepticism about the wisdom of adopting many human enhancements in the near and medium-term future, challenging Harris' enthusiasm for enhancement.

The risks of progress: precaution and the case of human enhancement

Human enhancement raises ethical concerns about freedom, autonomy, health, fairness, equity, societal disruption, and human dignity.

Untangling the Debate: The Ethics of Human Enhancement

An adequate defense of human enhancement technologies requires more than a simple balance of risks and benefits, as it overlooks essential ethical considerations and overlooks risk assessments as value judgments.

Defending human enhancement technologies: unveiling normativity

This paper presents a 25-question survey on the ethics of human enhancement technologies, addressing concerns such as freedom, autonomy, health, fairness, equity, societal disruption, and human dignity.

Ethics of Human Enhancement: 25 Questions & Answers

Technological incorporations in human biology are ethical within a regulatory and normative framework, contributing to the development of clean energy sources, preventive medical treatments, and strategies for planet conservation and decontamination.

Human enhancement making use of technological incorporations in their biology - Ethical perspective

Human enhancement technologies hold promise for advancement but also pose risks to health, well-being, and equality, requiring urgent guidance for responsible decision-making.

Promoting ethics for human enhancement technologies

Embryo selection for genetic cognitive enhancement has ethical implications, as it is more likely to become commercially available than gene-editing, and public attitudes towards human genomics and enhancement technologies should be considered.

The Ethics of Genetic Cognitive Enhancement: Gene Editing or Embryo Selection?

Moral enhancement is most likely to be successful through socialization, education, and parental supervision, or general cognitive enhancement methods, rather than targeting specific ethical capacities.

MORAL ENHANCEMENT AND FREEDOM

Genetic enhancement in an evolutionary context requires ethical considerations, considering multiple effects, complex epigenetic interactions, and a distinction between 'therapy' and 'enhancement' in future regulations.

Human enhancement

Human enhancement and disability management are not distinct, as both aim to improve individuals' abilities and quality of life through technological means.

Human enhancement: from disability to superability

A ban on human genetic enhancement is unstable, as it may be necessary due to competitions and incentives, making it difficult to effectively prevent its use.

Can human genetic enhancement be prohibited?

This paper proposes a framework for discussing the ethics of human enhancement, borrowing from Just War Theory, to guide stakeholders in making decisions about the moral permissibility of interventions in the field.

Adult gene enhancement is ethically feasible, and further application of other adult human enhancement techniques is also ethically feasible.

On the Ethical Issues of Gene-enhancement in Different Stages of Human Development

Wearable technologies hold great promise for disease diagnosis and patient care, but ethical concerns in early-stage human research require further development.

Ethical Considerations of Wearable Technologies in Human Research

What are the ethical considerations in the use of technology for human enhancement?

These studies suggest that ethical considerations in the use of technology for human enhancement include permissibility, net benefits, playing God, freedom, autonomy, health, fairness, equity, societal disruption, and human dignity.
